My thoughts below, @steinman. Your desired goal is for neither Clinton nor Trump to win Michigan. In other words, for a 3rd-party candidate to win. Michigan isn't a blow-out, but is unlikely at this point to be a swing state, based on best info, with the caveat that Michigan is the one state...

Fair enough.

Depends on the meaning of "help". My gaming group did annual readings of Dark Dungeons at holiday parties with much hilarity. I can honestly say that Chick provided us with entertainment for years.

Holy shit, really?

My state-level elections (state legislature) tend to have Democrats, people who think the dems aren't extreme enough, one person who is campaigning on the behalf of rent-is-to-damn-high/it's-all-rigged-anyways/puppies, and one token Republican, so I kind of do whatever on that one. On the...

One way or the other, we're on our way to a very awkward Baldwin Thanksgiving.

Ouch. That plane ride in the ad must be real short.

The issue that Ash is trying to point out is that this is the game industry's general take on programmers/designers/composers/marketers/employees overall. The industry tone around most positions is that getting into the game industry is so appealing (because everyone loves games!) that everyone...

Who? Who? :awesome:

Sir, I salute your reference game.

Whatever happened to Seanbaby?

...is the Time Lord also consenting?

Like him or hate him, Dave Wong is a very clear cut above the rest of the Cracked.

Exactly. In US politics, conspiracies about "international banks" code very, very anti-semitic. And to be clear, while Trump seems to prefer retweeting memes from neo-nazis and white power movements, we also see a lot of anti-semitic language crop up on the left at the fringes of the...

Oh sure. I've long wondered if the way we do our representatives is better or worse than a parliamentary system, but I think a transition at this point, aside from the logistical challenges, would probably actually worsen our current partisan problem. I don't think Americans need any more...

You guys also have a parliamentary system with multiple-winner elections where seat ownership is determined by party votes first, then individuals within that party, that puts a very different spin on the whole thing.

That's not actually a winning strategy for the leader, though. That's more likely to get liberal voters in general to put Hillary second, and that is specifically counter to her goals. You can't actually message exclusively to Bernie supporters, even in our social media world. Otherwise, Trump...

You're conflating the two scenarios with two rounds of ranked voting allocation. The scenarios aren't the same instance of voting, they are separate instances of near-identical voting (think of the first scenario as polling and the second as the actual vote, if it helps), intended to how how...

The RangeVoting link is a bit poorly written (probably because the author notes it was heavily revised later). When they say "second" in that example they have at the top, they mean a second example that is a variant of the first where A-candidate voters who also like C-candidate are persuaded...
